Huskers disappointed, but moving on to Colorado

Nebraska head football coach Scott Frost said he kept his Husker players updated throughout Saturday night about the status of their game against Akron before finally sending them home thinking they'd play Sunday. But soon after, he texted them that the game wouldn't be played after all.

"We're just disappointed," said Frost during Monday's press conference. "It's been a lot of hard work. We got all dressed up for nothing. The guys were ready to play. A couple guys were yelling out 'let's just play in the Hawks', which would've been epic but probably not safe."

While Nebraska tried to make sleeping accommodations for Akron Saturday night, the Zips declined to play the game Sunday.
